In the practice of our invention we provide a kettle a, made of anysuitable metal, and comprising a bottom chamber a2 and a top chamber a3,separated by a horizontal partition a4.

The bottom chamber a2 is provided with vertically-arranged tubes or lueswhich extend through the bottom of' the chamber a2 and through thepartition a4 into the chambei` a3, and said chambei` a3-is formed in theconstruction shown by means of the partition ai* and the top a5 oi thekettle.

The top a5 of the kettle and the partition ai* are connected centrallyby a vertically-arranged tube or casing c, the upper end of which isclosed by a cap d, provided with a depending tubular member d2, whichiits in the tube or casing c and a flange d3, and said cap d is alsoprovided with a handle d4.

The tube or casing c forms an opening through which the kettlemay befilled, and
